WELCOME TO THE HIVE

Art Haven expanded in 2012 with the addition of The Hive - Cape Ann Art Haven's art center for teens and adults. The Hive serves teenagers and adults by providing an inviting space for creative expression and collaboration. The Hive provides:

Affordable and approachable art classes and programming for adults.

Year-round mentoring, support, and employment opportunities for local teens.

A dynamic gathering space for community members and organizations and a gallery space displaying the work of Cape Ann artists.

MISSION STATEMENT

Cape Ann Art Haven is a community space where artists of all ages and abilities are encouraged to develop creativity and confidence through hands-on learning and collaboration.

Cape Ann Art Haven operates in two spaces in downtown Gloucester. Art Haven is our flagship venue and houses our programs for youth and children. Our motto for Art Haven is “drawing out the best in community.” The Hive is a dynamic community center and houses our programs for teens and adults. It is located around the corner from Art Haven. Our motto for The Hive is “cultivating the cross-pollination of energy, creativity and support.”

Upcoming Art Clases:

A flat piece of fabric can be resurfaced, restructured, and reshaped to create detailed and structured forms. Embellishment through the art of fabric manipulation will be explored in this course. Students will study three-dimensional techniques including but not limited to pleating, darting, and quilting. Students will receive instruction on their own independent sewing projects. A final project will consist of creating a fashion accessory which utilizes the techniques learned in this course. No sewing experience necessary.

Instructor, Ruth Worrall, welcomes beginners as well as those with previous experience. Ruth invites students to discover the pliability, durability, malleability, and delicacy that is the magic of clay. Ruth works in her home studio in Gloucester while also exhibiting and selling her work throughout the North Shore of Massachusetts.

Painting Studio with Instructor, Traci, at The Hive is open to all levels of painters, whether you are a complete beginner or perhaps a seasoned artist who would like to try a new medium. Students work at their own pace, learning to paint from observation while employing classic elements of art including but not limited to line, shape, form, space, composition, value, and color.
